Aaron Glenn Reflects on Media Relations and Coaching Decisions
Jets coach Aaron Glenn has expressed regret regarding his approach to the media during his inaugural season, acknowledging that he treated them as adversaries despite their lack of involvement in his frustrations.
Glenn admitted to making several mistakes in a challenging first year, including the decision to significantly overhaul his coaching staff. He emphasized the importance of being adaptable in leadership roles, noting that failure to pivot can lead to failure.
Additionally, Glenn reflected on the choice to assign the starting quarterback position to Justin Fields, which he believes affected the team's success. He recognized that the Jets had other options available but ultimately chose Fields, who received a substantial contract. With pressure mounting for improvement in his second year, Glenn is now more inclined to foster better relations with the media.
